Description

CRYSTALLINE FORMS OF EFINACONAZOLE
TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to polymorphic forms of efinaconzole and processes for their preparation.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Efinaconazole, (2R,3R)-2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-3- (4- methylenepiperidin-l-yl) -1- (1JJ-1,2,4-triazol-l-yl) butan-2-01, has the following chemical structure:
It is used as an antifungal, and marketed as the active pharmaceutical ingredient of a topical solution indicated for the treatment of onychomycosis.
Efinaconazole and a process for its preparation, as well as the p-toluenesulfonate salt of efinaconazole, were described in US5620994. The preparation of efinaconazole was later described in US8871942. Polymorphs of efinaconazole or its p-toluenesulfonate salt were not described.
The occurrence of different crystal structures of a solid material is known as polymorphism. A single molecule, such as ef inaconazole, may give rise to various polymorphs having distinct crystal structures and physical properties. Different crystalline forms of the same molecule may differ, for example, with respect to fingerprints, and thermal behavior (as may be measured by differential scanning calorimetry or thermogravimetric analysis).
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides crystalline forms of efinaconazole and processes for their preparation. Specifically, the invention provides crystalline efinaconazole forms designated herein as Form A, Form B and Form C.
The invention further provides crystalline efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate salt, designated herein as Form I, and a process for its preparation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In a first embodiment, the present invention provides crystalline efinaconazole designated herein as Form A. Crystalline Form A of efinaconazole is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least three, and more preferably all, of 7.6, 10.4, 10.8 and 24.0 degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta.
In a particular embodiment, efinaconazole Form A is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially as depicted in Figure 1. The X-ray powder diffraction peak positions (indicated as degrees 2-theta) and relative intensities (indicated as I/Io) exhibited by ef inaconazole Form A, as depicted in Figure 1, are as follows (relative intensities are indicated in parentheses for each peak position): 7.6 (0.33), 10.0 (0.05), 10.4 (0.04), 10.8 (0.04), 11.4 (0.02), 12.1 (0.04), 12.9 (0.06), 13.7 (0.02), 15.0 (0.11), 15.3 (1.0), 16.7 (0.53), 17.1 (0.03), 17.7 (0.02), 18.5 (0.02), 18.9 (0.12), 19.3 (0.01), 20.2 (0.05), 20.8 (0.03), 23.1 (0.02), 23.4 (0.03), 24.0 (0.03), 24.5 (0.02), 24.9 (0.02), 25.3 (0.02), 26.0 (0.03), 27.2 (0.02), 27.8 (0.01), 30.1 (0.02), 31.8 (0.01), 32.9 (0.01) and 33.8 (0.01) degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta. Preferably, efinaconazole Form A is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least four, six or eight, and more preferably all, of the above degrees 2-theta values.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form A is further characterized by a Raman spectrum substantially as depicted in Figure 2 .
Crystalline efinaconazole Form A is further characterized by a DSC thermogram substantially as depicted in Figure 3, and a DSC melting onset at about 85.75°C ± 1.00°C.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form A is further characterized by a TGA thermogram substantially as depicted in Figure 4 .
In addition, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of crystalline efinaconazole Form A, comprising the steps of dissolving efinaconazole in a suitable solvent, such as acetonitrile; adding a suitable anti-solvent, such as a mixture of water and ethanol in a ratio of 2:1; maintaining the mixture for a duration sufficient to allow the formation of crystals; and optionally isolating the obtained crystals.
The efinaconazole used as starting material can be prepared, for example, according to the procedures described in US5620994 or US8871942, both of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
The volume ratio between the solvent and the anti-solvent may be e.g. between about 1:10 and 10:1, and suitably about 1:3. Preferably, after the addition of the antisolvent, the mixture is maintained for a duration of about 2 to 48 hours before isolation of the obtained crystals, and typically about 24 hours. The obtained crystals may be isolated from the reaction mixture by conventional means such as filtration.
As an example, efinaconazole Form A can be prepared by dissolving efinaconazole in acetonitrile, adding a 2:1 solution of water and ethanol, maintaining the mixture overnight at room temperature and collecting the obtained crystals by filtration.
In another embodiment, the invention provides crystalline efinaconazole designated herein as Form B. Crystalline Form B of ef inaconazole is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least three, preferably at least four, and more preferably all, of 7.7, 10.0, 10.6, 12.5, 23.8 and 34.5 degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta.
In a particular embodiment, efinaconazole Form B is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially as depicted in Figure 5. The X-ray powder diffraction peak positions (degrees 2-theta) and relative intensities (I/10) exhibited by efinaconazole Form B, as depicted in Figure 5, are as follows (relative intensities are indicated in parentheses for each peak position): 7.7 (0.37), 10.0 (0.05), 10.6 (0.12), 11.4 (0.01), 12.5 (0.14), 12.9 (0.03), 13.8 (0.01), 15.0 (0.18), 15.4 (1.00), 16.7 (0.68), 17.8 (0.01), 18.9 (0.26), 20.2 (0.06), 20.9 (0.02), 21.2 (0.04), 22.8 (0.01), 23.2 (0.02), 23.4 (0.04), 23.8 (0.06), 24.5 (0.05), 24.9 (0.02), 25.3 (0.03), 26.0 (0.06), 27.3 (0.04), 27.8 (0.01), 28.2 (0.02), 28.5 (0.01), 30.1 (0.02), 30.5 (0.01), 30.9 (0.01), 31.4 (0.01), 31.8 (0.01), 32.9 (0.01), 33.2 (0.01), 33.8 (0.02) and 34.5 (0.01) degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta. Preferably, efinaconazole Form B is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least four, six or eight, and more preferably all, of the above degrees 2-theta values.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form B is further characterized by a Raman spectrum Raman spectrum substantially as depicted in Figure 6.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form B is further characterized by a DSC thermogram substantially as depicted in Figure 7, and a DSC melting onset at about 85.05°C ± 1.00°.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form B is further characterized by a TGA thermogram substantially as depicted in Figure 8 .
In addition, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of crystalline efinaconazole Form B, comprising the steps of dissolving efinaconazole in a suitable solvent, such as diethylether or diisopropylether; adding a suitable anti-solvent, such as hexane; maintaining the mixture for a duration sufficient to allow the formation of crystals; and optionally isolating the obtained crystals.
The volume ratio between the solvent and the anti-solvent may be e.g. between about 1:10 and 10:1. In the case of using diethylether as the solvent and hexane as the antisolvent, the ratio between the solvent and the antisolvent may be e.g. between about 1:10 and 10:1, preferably between about 1:2 and 1:2.5, more preferably between about 1:2.1 and 1:2.2, with 1:2.13 being especially preferred. The obtained crystals may be isolated from the reaction mixture by conventional means such as filtration.
As an example, efinaconazole Form B can be prepared by dissolving efinaconazole in diethylether, adding hexane, maintaining the mixture overnight at room temperature and collecting the obtained crystals by filtration.
As another example, efinaconazole Form B can be prepared by dissolving efinaconazole in a 1:1 mixture of diisopropylether and hexane at 50°C, cooling to 5°C over 1.5 hours, stirring at 5°C for another 0.5 hour and collecting the obtained crystals by filtration.
Alternatively, crystalline efinaconazole Form B may be obtained by dissolving efinaconazole in hexane, preferably at an elevated temperature (such as between about 40°C-70°C, and suitably about 60°C), following which the solution is cooled to a lower temperature (such as, for example, room temperature). Optionally, hexane may be added. The obtained crystals may be isolated from the reaction mixture by conventional means such as filtration.
In another embodiment, the invention provides crystalline efinaconazole designated herein as Form C. Crystalline Form C of ef inaconazole is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least three, preferably at least four, and more preferably all, of 7.7, 10.1, 11.4, 13.8, 13.9, 17.9, 22.5, 26.2, 26.4 and 29.2 degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta.
In a particular embodiment, efinaconazole Form C is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially as depicted in Figure 9. The X-ray powder diffraction peak positions (degrees 2-theta) and relative intensities (I/1o) exhibited by efinaconazole Form C, as depicted in Figure 9, are as follows (relative intensities are indicated in parentheses for each peak position): 7.7 (0.21), 10.1 (0.04), 11.4 (0.11), 13.0 (0.01), 13.9 (0.07), 15.4 (1.00), 16.1 (0.05), 16.7 (0.27), 17.9 (0.08), 19.0 (0.18), 20.2 (0.04), 21.0 (0.02), 22.5 (0.01), 23.2 (0.04), 23.6 (0.04), 24.5 (0.05), 24.9 (0.02), 25.4 (0.02), 26.2 (0.03), 26.8 (0.01) 27.3 (0.03), 27.8 (0.01), 29.2 (0.01), 30.2 (0.03), 30.6 (0.01), 31.8 (0.02), 32.9 (0.01), 33.7 (0.01), 33.9 (0.01), 34.6 (0.01) degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta. Preferably, efinaconazole Form C is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least four, six or eight, and more preferably all, of the above degrees 2-theta values.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form C is further characterized by a Raman spectrum substantially as depicted in Figure 10.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form C is further characterized by a DSC thermogram substantially as depicted in Figure 11, and a DSC melting onset at about 83.30°C ± 1.00°C.
Crystalline efinaconazole Form C is further characterized by a TGA thermogram substantially as depicted in Figure 12 .
In addition, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of crystalline efinaconazole Form C, comprising the steps of dissolving efinaconazole in a suitable solvent, such as a 1:1 mixture of diisopropylether and hexane; maintaining the mixture for a duration sufficient to allow the formation of crystals, and optionally isolating the obtained crystals.
The dissolution of efinaconazole in the solvent may be carried out at an elevated temperature, such as 40°C.
After complete dissolution of the efinaconazole, the mixture is preferably cooled to a temperature of about 4-5°C. The mixture is then preferably maintained for a duration of over 2 hours, such as, for example, between about 12 to 48 hours, and typically about 24 hours, before isolation of the obtained crystals. The crystals may be isolated from the reaction mixture by conventional means such as filtration.
As an example, ef inaconazole Form C can be prepared by dissolving efinaconazole in a 1:1 mixture of diisopropylether and hexane at 40°C, cooling to 4-5°C, maintaining the mixture overnight and collecting the obtained crystals by filtration.
Alternatively, crystalline efinaconazole Form C may be obtained by dissolving efinaconazole in cyclohexane, preferably at an elevated temperature (such as between about 40°C-70°C, and suitably about 55°C), following which the solution is cooled to a lower temperature (such as between about 0°C-25°C, and suitably about 10°C). The obtained crystals may be isolated from the reaction mixture by conventional means such as filtration.
In another embodiment, the invention provides crystalline efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate salt, designated herein as Form I. Form I is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least three, preferably at least four, and more preferably all, of 7.0, 9.2, 18.4, 20.9 and 22.9 degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta.
In a particular embodiment, Form I is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern substantially as depicted in Figure 13. The X-ray powder diffraction peak positions (indicated as degrees 2-theta) and relative intensities (indicated as I/Io) exhibited by efinaconazole Form I, as depicted in Figure 13, are as follows (relative intensities are indicated in parentheses for each peak position): 7.0 (1.00), 9.2 (0.10), 12.0 (0.05), 12.5 (0.01), 13.5 (0.01), 13.9 (0.01), 16.0 (0.01), 16.7 (0.03), 17.8 (0.04), 18.4 (0.10), 19.1 (0.05), 20.1 (0.01), 20.9 (0.07), 22.9 (0.10), 24.2 (0.02), 24.7 (0.01), 25.1 (0.02), 26.4 (0.01), 27.6 (0.03), 28.0 (0.01), 28.7 (0.02), 31.0 (0.01) and 31.6 (0.01) degrees 2-theta ± 0.1 degrees 2-theta. Preferably, Form I is characterized by an X-ray powder diffraction pattern having peaks at at least two, preferably at least four, six or eight, and more preferably all, of the above degrees 2-theta values.
In addition, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of crystalline efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate salt Form I, comprising the steps of dissolving efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate in a suitable solvent, and subsequently causing the precipitation of efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate by methods known in the art such as cooling the solution, evaporating the solvent or adding an anti-solvent. The obtained crystals may optionally be isolated.
The efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate salt used as starting material can be prepared, for example, according to the procedure described in US5620994. Suitable solvents for dissolving the efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate include, for example, methyltetrahydrofuran, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, acetonitrile or mixtures thereof. Preferably, the dissolution of efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate is carried out at an elevated temperature, such as between about 40-70°C. In a preferred embodiment, after dissolution of the efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate, crystals are allowed to form by cooling the solution temperature. Suitably, the solution is cooled to a temperature of, for example, between about 5-20°C. The solution may be maintained at that temperature for a duration of about 2 to 48 hours, and typically about 24 hours, before isolation of the obtained crystals. The obtained crystals may be isolated from the reaction mixture by conventional means such as filtration.
In an embodiment of the invention, the various crystalline forms of efinaconazole of the present invention are in substantially pure form. The term "substantially pure", as used herein, refers to crystalline forms of, or greater than, 80%, preferably 90%, more preferably 95%, more preferably 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% polymorphic purity, as determined, for example, by X-ray powder diffraction or by Raman spectroscopy.
The crystalline forms of the invention can be used to prepare other solid state forms of efinaconazole or efinaconazole salts.
The crystalline forms of efinaconazole or its p-toluenesulfonate salt of the present invention can be used to prepare pharmaceutical compositions. Such compositions may include, for example, topical solutions for the treatment of onychomycosis. The pharmaceutical compositions can be prepared by methods known in the art, such as, for example, the methods described in US8039494, US 8 4 8 6978, W02008081940 or W0W02009085314, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
The invention thus provides the use of an ef inaconazole polymorph selected from the group consisting of Form A, Form B and Form C, or a mixture thereof, or of efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate Form I, in the preparation of a pharmaceutical composition. Further provided by the invention are pharmaceutical compositions prepared from an efinaconazole polymorph selected from the group consisting of Form A, Form B and Form C, or a mixture thereof, or from efinaconazole p-toluenesulfonate Form I.
The invention is further illustrated by the following examples, which are not to be construed as limiting.
